About Andree

Hello, I am a fashion consultant and stylist working with brands and creatives who need expert advice and guidance on their product development and business model. From startups to larger structures, I will find creative, cost-effective, and sustainable design solutions, and I will support you or your design team through design, consulting, and mentoring. My problem-solving, organizational, and productivity skills lend themselves perfectly to project management and factory communication. I am passionate about guiding you through your brand journey while ensuring ethical practices.

Together, we will make for an enjoyable and inspiring process and get your ideas into production and ready to sell. With my friendly, down-to-earth, and honest approach, not often associated with the fashion world, I will take the overwhelm out of the process and bring clarity to your vision.

The studio offers services including:

- Consultation and Mentoring
- Brand Identity and Values
- Market Research and Analysis
- Collection Planning
- Apparel and Accessories Design
- CAD Design and Tech Packs
- Project Management
- Product Development and Studio Launch


Over 15 years of experience as Head of Design for global brands, transitioning into an independent consultant and mentor for fashion brands. With a 360° view of the fashion industry, I have designed and developed products selling hundreds of thousands of units contributing directly to annual revenue increase and business growth. My versatile handwriting lends itself to multiple design styles in finding innovative solutions to create stunning collections in line with your brand philosophy.
